Re: Which key to check?

BINGO! The pad on the crow's foot is considerably thinner on the right side than on the left. When I use the "plug," it causes the pad on the crow's foot to compress on the right hand side whenever my clarinet is in its case. I cut some small pieces of masking tape and put them on the right hand side of the crow's foot where the pad is considerably thinner than it is on the left, and it alleviated the problem. The last time I went without the "plug," my clarinet ended up back in the shop...coincidence? Not sure...and I can't remember exactly what the issue was. I'll take my clarinet in today and have my tech resolve the issue with a new pad (fingers crossed) and let you know how it ended up. I will also ditz the "plug."
